Sporogony is one of the sexual stages of the Plasmodium. The nucleus of the oocyst of Plasmodium divides repeatedly to form a large number of daughter nuclei.

This phase of asexual multiplication is known as sporogony and it takes place in the stomach wall of mosquito. This stage is completed in about 10-21 days.
